This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter clinical trial. This trial will recruit 86 patients with intracerebral hemorrhage of both sexes, ages >18 years, from four Mexican hospitals. The patients will receive either 20mg of fluoxetine or a placebo once daily for 90 days. The primary outcome is the mean change in Fugl-Meyer Motor Scale score between inclusion (day 0) and day 90. The secondary outcomes will be changes in Barthel Index, Modified Rankin scale and National Institutes of Health (NIH) Stroke Scale. The outcomes will be measured at day 45±7days and at day 90, for a total of four visits with each subject (at screening and at 0, 45 and 90days).
